You can merge several application entities so that the Reports Servers installed in separate ORACLE_HOME
s can share available SSOCONN
resources. To achieve this merge, you must execute an LDIF file with the ldapmodify
command. The LDIF file should contain the following:
dn: dn of the group representing the logical grouping of all report instances changetype: modify add: uniquemember uniquemember: dn of the Reports Application Entity
where:
dn of the group representing the logical grouping of all report instances is cn=Virtual Application Group, orclApplicationCommonName=reports_application_ entity_name**, cn=Reports, cn=Products, cn=OracleContext
dn of the Reports Application Entity is orclApplicationCommonName=reports_application_entity_name**, cn=Reports, cn=Products, cn=OracleContext ** reports_application_entity_name is in the format reportsApp_hostname_GUID. For example, reportsApp_serv1.us.oracle.com_C7543D42A9E26726E034080020A46EE
Entry in the LDIF file:
dn: cn=Virtual Application Group, orclApplicationCommonName=reportsApp_Group.us.oracle.com_C7543D42A9E26726E0340 80020A46EE2, cn=Reports, cn=Products, cn=OracleContext changetype: modify add: uniquemember uniquemember: orclApplicationCommonName=reportsApp_serv1.us.oracle.com_A8654E53B0F37837F1451 91131B57FF3, cn=Reports, cn=Products, cn=OracleContext
Corresponding ldapmodify
command on the command line:
ldapmodify -D cn=orcladmin -w welcome1 -h reportsApp_Group.us.oracle.com -p 389 -f mergeentity.ldif
Note:
You can now find sample LDIF in the Oracle Reports page on OTN located athttp://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/reports/overview/index.html
